Change

Now if you spend your life in prison
Really what's your definition
That really ain't a life
Go and look for your description
Easier to give them back
Their medicines and prescriptions
They try and pull you down
So they can better their position
Instead of build each other up
We'd rather demolition
When you bring to their attention
They don't even wanna listen
Why people looking back
If they don't wanna do revision
Stronger when we multiply
No wonder why they want division
They wonder how I got my vision
It's a gift that I been given
Had no pot to piss in til I saw my opportunity
Had no plan of what to do
The people called it foolery
Now I got the purpose of uniting my community
Born to be a ruler
Speaking of me in my eulogy
They better not let anybody in that wasn't cool to me
Nah Ima let the bygones be bygone
So my soul gonna ride on
I'm lighting up the pylon
They snaking like a python
Really so much that I could write on
A hustler that wanna flip my switch and get my light on
A goal to set the sight on be important
Keep your eyes on the horizon
If you wanna be Orion
Like a star then get your bright on
Keep that in mind when tracks I write on
But it ain't for the "right on"
It's more than sounding tight on
Time only telling bout the right or wrong
Enjoy the blessing of the moment
Given failure happens take it as a lesson

Got some homies that are still locked in a cage
Other homies who're already lowered in a grave
Other people that I love living so afraid
Of what they could do
If they adjust some moves and rearrange
Everywhere I look somebody going through the pain
How you gonna see the sun
Until you gettin through the rain
Everything come together like its prearranged
That'll happen when you do it
Long enough to see a change

We as a people gotta find a way to recognize
The power of the evil
And the plot and place to get inside
Deceitful are the leaders
Puppets playing genocide
And carving up the planet
Passing judgement that could end a life
So this ones for the homies
Cause I got some in cells
Spending birthdays all alone
Holidays in hell
Conversations on the phone
Or written in mail
I just wanna see him home
Free my g Sledge for real
For real

Got some homies that are still locked in a cage
Other homies who're already lowered in a grave
Other people that I love living so afraid
Of what they could do
If they adjust some moves and rearrange
Everywhere I look somebody going through the pain
How you gonna see the sun
Until you gettin through the rain
Everything come together like its prearranged
That'll happen when you do it
Long enough to see a change
